Longmire S02


What the fuck happened to the sustained and consistent narrative momentum of season one?

The first three-quarters of this season was Mediocre with a capital 'm':  nine eps of blah-corpse-blah-detecting-blah-solved case-of-the-week bullshit and then, it was like the crew realised, Shit!  We need something to help us get greenlit for another season! and they brought out the aftermath of the aftermath of Longmire's wife's violent death that was one of the great things about the first season.

What the fuck, people?  My watching buddy turned off out of boredom five eps in while I
hung in there like grim fucking Death.  You remembered your season/series arc nine eps in?

And now, having watched the season finale with its own mini version of Shit!  We need something to leave people hanging out for season three! I'm like --

-- Vaya con Dios, motherfuckers (goddamn waste my motherfucking time with your amateur-hour bullshit).
